To an Armored Amour
A dragon can be useful, some blow hot and others, cold... And some are shy and hide from you while others are too bold! And some are lost in memories, some distant recollection... But whatever kind of drake you have--my dragon is perfection! She's quick to smile, and quick to laugh, yet thinks in visions lofty... A neck as long as a giraffe... Sharp fangs, but she's a softy. I do my best to cheer her up, to find some way to ease her... You get that way around her, you want so much to please her. She's good for kissing, hugs, and snugs, and patting soft and near... And lets you use her claws to open up your ginger beer. She's not demanding cars, or movies, or a lot of clothes... And only looks confused if you should gravely beep her nose. You kind of have to grasp the fact that she's a novel being. She's careful of her movements; you can use her back for skiing. She always takes your presents, never petulant or whiney. Just give her anything, if it is metal, and it's shiny. She

A Dragon Christmas
Small dragons in the Christmas tree!
Grab your presents, quickly flee!
Ignore the squeaks, the snarls, the snapping!
Pry their claws from off the wrapping!
Warn the neighbors breathlessly!
Small dragons in the Christmas tree!
Little dragons in your stocking!
Crawling, brawling, biting, squawking!
All the candy canes are gone!
Tinsel strewn about the lawn!
Table toppled, shredded silk.
Cookies stolen, splattered milk!
Dragons in the chimney flue!
Dropping down to growl at you!
Snares and traps, an ambush set.
Tripwire and a waiting net!
Eager claws spread wide for booty!
Warn St. Nick! Who's got THAT duty?

Age has its rewards, accumulated wisdom, rational priorities, memories safe in the treasury of the years, inviolate and precious. The adventure of life continues with the past guiding one's way to the future, and even the painful memories of mistakes inoculates one against facile errors. One sees and does new things, one enjoys and recalls old things fondly--and the world, and you, journey around the sun. Better yet, others who prize you are here to travel with you, and they rejoice in your existence, celebrating that by wishing you a Happy Birthday!
May your Muse laughingly cajole, convince, inspire, and take you on a beautiful and worthwhile drive to places and happy adventures you've never even imagined. May a justified belief that something wonderful is just around the corner brighten your life forever. May you not doubt your abilities, but labor successfully to expand them. May your dreams not prove nightmares, may you glimpse other strange worlds and let us share them with you--may those you love rejoice in you, and you in them, may joy and inspiration be faithful, friendly companions and helpers always. Happy Birthday!
I hope the whirlwind of existence leaves you laughing and astounded by the beauty and kindness around you, the adventures you've had, the good people you've met, and the loveliness you've encountered. May inspiration guide you along paths softly lit by insight and creative excitement, with all your senses caressed and tantalized by fascinating hints and promises. We rejoice at your presence in this and any other environment, we appreciate your priceless gifts of talent and time. May you receive thanks, admiration, and precisely as much of fame as you desire. May more beauty and wonder find you, and better, be created in the upcoming year! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
May a drive of noble dragons circle your head today, showering you with earned praise and wonderful, intricate presents... May your friends think of you and smile and laugh, may those you love think of you and feel better and hope to see you soon. May the year's journey 'round the sun that begins today leave you wiser, happier, more learned and eager to take a running start at the next one, and may it all begin with these sincere wishes that you have a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
